Just what the title says. What is your Top 3 favourite Pink Floyd albums and why? This isn't a poll because you have to explain what's great about them and hopefully this will start a great discussion.
1. Wish You Were Here
This plays like a symphony. Absolutely mesmerising. All the songs are fantastic and the production on the record is great. Favourite song from this album, a tie between all of them, there is no clear best song on this album, I think its that good.
2. Animals
One word to sum up this entire album:
Inspired
Listening to the solos on the songs (Dogs especially) you get the feeling that something higher than you wrote this music. The lyrics are fantastic and the parallel thoughts with George Orwell's "Animal Farm" are great. Favourite song on the album, tie between "Dogs" and "Pigs (Three different ones).
3. The Wall
Most people rank this as their number 1 Floyd album. I prefer the above two but that is no insult. This too plays like one piece of music. The movie is great also as are the lyrics in the album. Favourite song in the album, "Comfortably Numb". Not an easy choice, but I love that song.
What does everyone else think?

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
